If you think of a duo of Spanish sisters, it is inevitable that the Cruzes come to mind. Penélope and Mónica have become a national reference, each one for different reasons. Even so, the union that exists between them is almost as great as their physical resemblance.
And it is not surprising that the dancer is very happy on this special day for the actress. The oldest of the family turns 50 this Sunday, nothing more and nothing less. Half a century of experiences that they want to celebrate in style. And not only has she been successful in her professional career, but also in the most personal part of her.

Therefore, it is not surprising that he has been planning for several months to spend this birthday with his loved ones. “I am loyal to many people,” she said in an interview for the magazine elle. And one of these people is his sister. “She and I, like Pili and Mili, went every day to eat (to her mother’s hair salon), and after school, we returned,” she said, making clear this good relationship since childhood.
And after so much time together, and so many comparisons that could have broken the relationship, they always make it a point to show that they are closer than ever. And it is not the first time that the differences in the careers of one and the other have come to light.
Two different races that generate confrontation in the viewer
On the one hand, Penélope Cruz has become one of the most recognized and beloved actresses nationally and internationally over the years. So much so, that she has managed to get two Oscar nominations, winning a statuette. From a very young age she has managed to carve out a space for herself in a desired place for any actor or actress: Hollywood.
On the other hand, there have been many who have compared Mónica Cruz with her sister, ensuring that they are not on the same level. Despite this, the dancer is enjoying her career, for which she has fought and with which she has become well known for her appearances in television programs and series.

And it is this comparison that they have not hesitated to talk about to put an end to any possible rivalry between them. Monica was very clear in her interview on the program Day by day of Cadena SER and stated that “there is no competition” between the two. “It’s impossible. I can’t compete with my brothers. In fact, I celebrate their things more than my own, because mine happen and I think ‘great, let’s go for the next one,'” he said.
The middle of the Cruz family made clear the admiration she feels for her duo. “For me, seeing her work from such a young age, so hard, because she danced, she was in high school, she went to drama school, she didn’t have a single free second. Seeing all that effort, all that career, has shown me that with work you can achieve everything and much more than one can think,” he added proudly.
A union that is demonstrated with their life plans
And if there is one thing they have shown, it is that, despite there being differences in their professional careers, they are more equal than they seem. Not only have they shared advertising campaigns on more than one occasion, but they became mothers almost at the same time. Something that made them unite more and that made their own children forge an unbreakable union. Added to this is the fact that they decided to live in the same urbanization.
And they have demonstrated this brotherhood on numerous occasions with the youngest of the family, Eduardo Cruz. And if there is something important for this clan, it is being united despite everything that may be said about them.
